+.SH NAME
+xorgcfg - Graphical configuration tool for __xservername__
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B xorgcfg
+[-config\fI __xconfigfile__\fP] [-modulepath \fImoduledir\fP]
+[-fontpath \fIfontsdir\fP] [-toolkitoption ...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Xorgcfg
+is a tool to configure\fI __xservername__\fP, and can be used to either write the
+initial configuration file or make customizations to the current configuration.
+.PP
+When the \fBDISPLAY\fP environment variable is not set, xorgcfg will run
+the command\fI __xservername__ -configure\fP to allow the xserver detect the
+hardware in the computer, and write an initial\fI __xconfigfile__\fP file
+in the user's home directory. Then, it will start
+__xservername__ and allow customizations.
+.br
+If the \fBDISPLAY\fP environment variable is set, xorgcfg will read the
+default\fI __xconfigfile__\fP, that may not be the same being used by the current
+server, and allow customizations.
+.PP
+To use an alternative location for modules or fonts the respective search
+paths may be specified.
+.PP
+Unless there is an \fBApply\fP button in the current xorgcfg dialog, the
+changes made will take place the next time\fI __xservername__\fP is started.
+
+.PP
+Xorgcfg allows addition and configuration of new devices, such as video cards,
+monitors, keyboards and mouses.
+.PP
+Screen layout configuration for xinerama or traditional multi-head is also
+available.
+.PP
+Modelines can be configured or optimized.
+.PP
+AccessX basic configurations can be made in the xorgcfg's accessx section.
